Kyroteck Grind
So to start by saying that I think the gear economy is really good at the moment and that I don't want to come across like I want everything really easy! The 2 pinch points in the game imo, are kyr...
With my play style the result is that while they will continue to release new toons with new Kyro requirements, to finish taking all the current toons (including Darth Bane) g12 I only need ~4200 kyros. And I have ~900 on hand. I could race ahead with more g12 finishers for toons who still need other g12 gear, but I would rather have the Kyros sticking around for surprise releases of toons. And since none of the toons I have at g12 is a real priority (some of them are nice-to-relic, but not real priorities), I'm just banking g12 pieces against the day when they drop a toon whose kit benefits from including an older unit. If I ever have 3 copies of the same gear piece, I place that on my highest priority g12 unit that needs that piece, but I always have 2 copies of everything sitting around in case they're needed unexpectedly.
With this strategy, I'm mostly waiting on purple g12 gear to boost toons to relic, and signal data is mostly fine.
But if your 11M is built on a large number of r8s and r9s and you still have multiple toons below g12, I can see kyros being a problem. I don't do that. I generally don't relic a toon past r5 without a reason. And it's easy to have a reason to take them up higher than that, but I never do it just because. My JML, for instance, is still r8. I know that r9 would make him quite a bit better, but he does everything I need right now, so he stays r8 until there's an actual reason other than "he could be better". But taking hordes of toons to r5/r6 can tax different resources, so it's all a compromise.
